Use your imagination. Don't be restricted by any ideas of "catagory” for these ads — invent one! You can say Just about anything, but please remember we reach a diverse audience and phrase your ad with that fact in mind. If your ad refers to sexual preferences, we ask you to be clear but not too graphic We also ask that you be positive about yourself, rather than negative about others. Phrases such as "no fats or ferns," or "no Blacks” can be insulting. If you’re interested in meeting someone through an ad, be sure and give a true portrait of yourself The only way to benefit from a correspondence situation is to be above board and honest. When you receive an answer to your ad, please remember: that person deserves the courtesy Of a reply. If you're not interested, a short note saying "Thanks, but no thanks" will do. If we receive repeated reports of the same advertiser failing to answer his mail, we will be forced to cancel the ad in question. If you don’t mind people calling you directly, then you might consider publishing your phone number with your ad (There is a $1.00 charge to verify the number.) Phone number ads always receive more response than any other type The only drawback is that you must be prepared to answer many calls at all hours. We ask that anyone answering an ad with a phone number please honor any time restrictions or requests for discretion.
